Like I said in the case of Veterans Day being changed to Heroes Day by a local school my friend who served at gitmo wasn't outraged but his feelings were hurt. Most people are normal and don't pitch a bitch about minutiae. WSS Why don't you just tell him that was minutiae? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasAg1969 Posted November 15, 2018 Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 And while we're at it when is this so called "president" going to visit the Cal. wildfire disaster rather than sit back and tweet crapola about how it's the fault of forest managers? What does it take for you guys to see what a disaster we have in the WH? Being a despicable human being does not appear to reach you, so my guess will be only when we are in the depths of the Trump recession. It's coming.

DieHardBrownsFan Posted November 15, 2018 Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 Memorial day is for well, memorial.Ā Laying Wreaths.Ā Veterans day is not. Ā THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MEMORIAL DAY AND VETERANS DAY May 21, 2018 | By Teresa Verity Categories:Ā Blog,Ā Home,Ā Uncategorized Ā Memorial Day and Veterans Day are both patriotic holidays honoring the military, but there is a significant difference between the two aside from when they land on the calendar. Memorial Day, which falls on the last Monday in May, honors the men and women who died while serving in the military. This solemn occasion is a time to reflect on these American patriots who made the ultimate sacrifice while protecting and defending the country they deeply loved. Veterans Day, observed every November 11, recognizes all who have served in the Armed Forces. You may wonder: What is the proper way to acknowledge each holiday? On Memorial Day you can honor the fallen by attending memorial services within your community or laying flowers and planting flags on graves at your local Veterans cemetery. Veterans Day is an opportunity to do the same, but it is also an appropriate time to show your appreciation to Veteran friends and family. You can also recognize Veterans Day by flying the American flag outside your home, visiting or volunteering at a Veteran facility, attending a local event, and, of course, thanking Veterans and their families for their service. You do not have to wait for a national holiday to show your gratitude to Servicemembers. Any day is a good day to support Veterans either through a charity or giving a heartfelt āthank youā to those who served. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can tell you this Tex never would I do what Kellyanne's husband is doing...his wife works for Trump. It is hard for me to believe that someone can be so political they put their politics over their own wife's best interest...maybe I have a better marriage than these two but I just can't fathom me ever doing something like this. I think your guess is correct her husband is infected with TDS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it will be Ben Sasse of Iowa in 2020 if he'll run against Trump in the primaries. Mario is getting too Trumpy for me. He's trying to unseat Pence it appears. I'd take Sasse with Kasich any day over those two. Like a good many independents and now Republicans, I would only vote Democrat if Trump is up for it again.

The reason Congress passed the FERS program combined with paying SS was because CSRS was (and is) tied to COLA after you retire. They did not make that very clear when the choice was offered for those of us who could chose to stay in CSRS or switch. I smartly chose to believe that Congress would screw me if I went with FERS. I would not have been able to retire a bit early nor would I be getting the full COLA tied increase whenever it goes up. It would not be right to cut COLA increases for those Mil. who retired with that in mind when the chose to retire. It would be like changing the rules when the game is already decided. Disabled vets have no choice in that either without attempting to get an increase in their rating, which can be a nightmare with the VA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
